According to the police statement, this was for a complainant to avoid arrest.  

During the court proceedings, the accused pleaded not guilty to all charges.  

The accused also argued that they needed bail because they have families and children to feed and mentioned that they are the sole providers of their families.  

After granting them bail, the court said the accused must not interfere with any witnesses or the complainant's family.  

The accused were told to report to their nearest police stations every week.
